Did we just have an earthquake?

[oltman]

At almost exactly 11am we had quite an earth shudder. It was felt in Ballito and some people even felt it in Gateway, so its not something local like a sonic boom.

Anybidy else feel anything? Very curious about how far it stretched.

Nothing in PMB so at least you know it was only in your areas.

Nothing noticed in Margate despite reports of such.

Cape Town - A mini earth tremor has reportedly been experienced in parts of KwaZulu-Natal, with a number of Twitter users saying they felt the earth move at around 11:00 on Saturday.

The tremor is understood to have lasted for four seconds, and was felt from Richards Bay all the way to the Midlands.

"The ground shook for a couple of seconds," user @RealOBHS tweeted.

@teachernology tweeted: "Wow... just had the house shake."

@SiyaFuzeSA weighed in: "People won't take us serious guys if we call it a tremor, we just survived an earthquake bafwethu in Durban, cishe safa!"

But @Piscesboi2016 reckoned it was not that impressive: "lol seriously? My farts are stronger then that 'earthquake'."

Africa still not part of the world... I guess our geo sciences do not share our info.
